A TERRIBLE MISTAKE.

A lady of San Francisco, whose
little feet are always daintily shod,
is also the unfortunate possessor OF
an obstinate and burning corn upon
the smallest toe of her left foot
Chiropodists had dug tunnels
through that corn, yanked 1t with
nippers, smeared it with stinging
ointments, and, in despair, suggest
ed amputation. The corn held the
fort and successfully resisted the
assaults of the best razor the lady's
husband possessed-used, of course
without his knowledge. Finally, a
kind friend suggested that If phos'
phorous was rubbed on the afflicted
toe the corn would succumb. The
lady determined to try the remedy,
and did so inst before retiring, and
forgot to tell her liege lord what
she had done. The hour of mid
night had struck when the husband
suddenly awoke, and was somewhat
startled to see the flash of a FREELY
at the foot of the bed. Sleep was
again asserting its mastery, when
once more the sheen Of that FREELY
caused the husband to open wide
his eyes. He could not recollect
ever having seen FREELY IN Cali
fornia, but he could not disbelieve
his senses. Again and again that
freely flashed his baneiul CLEAN, of.
fectually banishing all thought of
sleep from the now thoroughly
aroused and wrathy husband. He

Skin The Cats.

TFrom the Boston Herald.
1t is estimated that not less than
100000 kittens are annually
brought into this sinful world. OF
these, the great majority are miser-
ably drowned-a practice which is
destined shortly to be done away
with by the recognition of the cat
as bearing animal. Rugs Of
selected Maltese and tortoise shell
are already quite expensive, and
excellent limitations Of various furs
are made in this material. Tsxider-
mists, too, are advertising for kit
tens by the thousand, to stuff for
ornamental purposes. At present
the only purpose to which they are
applied in this country is the man.
ufacture of carriage robes, but vast
numbers Of then are sent to Eu-
rope, where they are in great de-
mand for coats and hats, dressing
gown Innings and other garments.
The pelts come in from all parts
of the country. They are gathered
by professional collectors, who sup
ply them by the quantity at regu-
lar schedule rates. A common cat
skin is worth five cents. a pure
Maltese ten cents, and a black one
twenty-five cents. A carriage robe
of the best cat fur Is worth from
$40 to $50. There are always
plenty of stray cats running wild
IN the rural districts. The Maine
woods are full OF them. They
breed wonderfully fast, aud it Is
good sport popping them off the
fences and stone walls along the
roadside.

article used in the service which
probably comes the nearest in re-
semblance to the one used in Jeru-
salem before the jew hung his harp
upon the willows is this rams
horn. 1t is just such an instrument
as that which Joshua and his band
blew upon when the walls of Jer.
icho fell. Some little skill is re-
quired to blow it. 1t emlts but one
note, aud that of a peculiarly weird
and mournful character.
Following the custom establish
ed by the priests in the early his
tory Of the cult, it has been the
habit from time immemorial for the
men to wear the yeritable shrOuds
or garments intended to be used at
their burial. This practice, how
ever, among the weather. Jews OF
this city has fallen into disuse.
Among the poorer congregations
the white garments are still worn.
But rich and poor alike yet cling
to the little white cap which is worn
on the Day OF AtOnement.
A very curious ceremony In con-
nection with this day ls practiced
by strict Jews. On the day pre-.
vious to the Day of Atonement
each man takes a cock and each
women a hen, and swinging it three
times around the head they each
exclaim: "May this cock (hen) be
my atonement! This cock Chem
shall 90 to death that / may go
into the life of the blessed with all
Israel. Amen.p The fowls are
then killed and given to the poor,
or else kept and their value given.
A highly cultured rabbi, when
asked this morning if he made any
preparations for the fast by eating
a hearty meal, replied there was a
time in his experience when he did
80, but he had found that such
course was injurious. Now he eats
only an ordinary meal. But an
aged clothing dealer on Chatham
street pursues a different course
He eats all that he can hold and
says he suffers no i'll effects from &c

MIlpah.

Dfizpah is a Hebrew word deriv-
ed from the root Zaphar, and
means to see, to look up. 1t occurs
frequently in the Scriptures, and
many places were called Mizpah.
The 49th verse of the 31st chap.
ter of Genesis reads as follows I:
"And Mizpah; for he said, The
Lord watch between me and thee,
when we are absent one from an
other.
Mizpab, therefore, is engraved
IN rings, arm.bands, bracelets, am
ulets, and given in the orient as a
token of departing husbands or
friends to their wives, sweethearts
or lady acquaintances, indicating
loyalty during the term of absence.
The 3lst chapter of Genesis
gives the story OF Jacob and Laban.
